I know I'm not the one you are asking, but I think setting 
the path is LESS secure. Not because of any technical reason, 
given the fact that its easily circumvented, but because of 
the false sense of security that gets placed by developers 
using the path.

Using the same logic though, one would be compelled to recommend not
using SSL; the false sense of security 9-out-of-10 cats preferred. :P
